What is Tether (USDT)?
Tether (USDT) is the third largest cryptocurrency (after Bitcoin and Ether) and the largest stablecoin by market capitalization. Tether is a USD-pegged stablecoin, meaning that 1 Tether can be exchanged to USD at an approximate 1:1 ratio.
The coin was created in 2014 with the original name of "RealCoin", but was rebranded to Tether later that year. The organization behind USDT is iFinex, a company incorporated in HongKong that owns the BitFinex exchange. In the beginning, Tether was launched on the Bitcoin blockchain and could only be traded on that network, but after years of development and expansion, it is now available on commonly-used blockchains.
Since the birth of Tether USD or USDT, there have been more Tether stablecoins created for gold, Euro, Mexican Peso, British Pound Sterling, and offshore Chinese Yuan.
